Lucknow, Aug 7 (TIWN) While addressing a programme organised at the Indira Gandhi Pratishthan in state capital Lucknow on Saturday, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) National President J.P. Nadda said all party office bearers should fulfil their responsibilities ahead of the forthcoming Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections.

“Our party workers should counter the opposition parties with facts to expose them and communicate the schemes of the Central and the state governments to the general public,” Nadda added. 

He told district panchayat presidents and block chiefs that, “The people have elected you to your respective posts, you are not only a leader of the people but are the custodians of their faith. You must restore their faith.”  Speaking about the recent Uttar Pradesh panchayat elections, Nadda said, “The Yogi Adityanath government has done a commendable job of strengthening democracy by conducting the three-phase UP panchayat elections despite the Covid-19 pandemic. You will experience this only in India. This is the beauty of democracy here. The opposition parties should be countered on the basis of the work done by you (BJP workers).”
